    DOVER-FOXCROFT – Eunice A. Mountain, 88, wife of the late Eugene “Red” Mountain, passed away Sept. 5, 2013, at Mayo Regional Hospital. She was born Jan. 6, 1925, in Dover-Foxcroft, the daughter of the late Arthur Ames and Katherine (Davies) Ames Simpson.

After graduation, she was employed as a secretary for Farm Security Administration and later by the State Bureau of Health. In 1952, she and “Red” purchased Mountain’s Market and they ran it together for thirty-five years.
    Her time spent at the camp on Sebec Lake was filled with joy. Cribbage, crosswords, and conversation with friends and family were cherished. Eunice was a true animal lover, her family dogs and her cats kept a loving smile on her face.
    Eunice was predeceased by three brothers, Harry, Clarence and Harold Ames; and two sisters, Lillian Herring and Phyllis Berce.
    She is survived by two daughters, Julie Mountain of Dover-Foxcroft, and Janet Colbry and her husband, Jerry, of Dover-Foxcroft; two grandchildren, Dustin Colbry and his wife, Natasha, of Dover-Foxcroft, and Darren Colbry of LaGrange.
